Template:Infobox Military Unit The 7th ODST Battalion is a UNSC Marine Corps ODST unit. [1]
Background
Members of this battalion were stationed aboard the UNSC In Amber Clad during numerous battles including the The First Battle of Earth, Battle of Installation 05, and the Second Battle of Earth.
During the Battle of Installation 05, First Platoon of the group stationed on the In Amber Clad was sent along with the Master Chief to the surface to clear a landing zone. Unfortunately, they landed right in the middle of a Covenant fortified complex, and within seconds all but three of the Platoon were dead. The remaining ODSTs helped the Chief as he traveled towards the Prophet of Regret's Assault Carrier. Eventually, the three battle-weary ODSTs were evacuated by a Pelican and the rest of the way was aided by two standard marines.
Trivia
- The 7th was first mentioned in the Art of Halo book, released alongside Halo 2.
- The battalion number comes from a patch that was designed for Halo 2 and intended to be used on crew members of the In Amber Clad. The patch was shown along with the In Amber Clad patch in the book The Art of Halo. It is not clear whether or not this patch was ever actually seen on the shoulders of any characters, as the In Amber Clad logo was.
